Theoretical analysis for critical fluctuations of relaxation trajectory near a saddle-node bifurcation

open access: yes, 2010
A Langevin equation whose deterministic part undergoes a saddle-node bifurcation is investigated theoretically. It is found that statistical properties of relaxation trajectories in this system exhibit divergent behaviors near a saddle-node bifurcation ...

Impact of Baseline Terms on the Course of Critical Paths and Time Buffers in the Modified Goldratt’s Method

open access: yesArchives of Civil Engineering, 2013
The introduction of a baseline term to the dependency network most often results in a change, break and/or generation of a new sequence of critical path, depending on the type of such a baseline term and the exact date selected.

Finite Element Analysis of FRP Debonding Failure at the Tip of Flexural/Shear Crack in Concrete Beam [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
One of the most common failure modes of strengthened RC beams with externally bonded FRP is intermediate crack (IC) debonding of FRP initiated at the tip of flexural/shear cracks. This study presents a method, using extended finite element method (XFEM),

Wigner lattice of ripplopolarons in a multielectron bubble in helium

open access: yes, 2003
The properties of ripplonic polarons in a multielectron bubble in liquid helium are investigated on the basis of a path-integral variational method.

Power system fuzzy bang-bang stabilizer design VIA critical path method [PDF]

open access: yes
[[abstract]]This paper addresses a new approach, called the optimal path estimation method (OPEM), to implement the time optimal bang-bang control. The method is based on feedback information obtained by estimating the distance from the present state to ...

Critical path method assessment of community recovery

open access: yes, 2020
The critical path method (CPM) is investigated as a tool for identifying recovery activities that control the timeline for restoration of key community functions in the wake of a major disruptive event, such as a hurricane or tornado. Three recovery endpoints are studied: (1) restoring drinking water systems to normal operations, (2) returning children

Box-constrained vector optimization: a steepest descent method without “a priori” scalarization [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper a notion of descent direction for a vector function defined on a box is introduced. This concept is based on an appropriate convex combination of the “projected” gradients of the components of the objective functions.
